English Premiership Gameweek 21: 9 January, 10 January, 11 January 2010 Hull City vs. Chelsea Think back to the opening fixture of the season. Yes, the one where Chelsea survived a scare at home against a pretty lively Hull team. The Tigers were always going to come screaming out of the starting blocks - just look at [...]

English Premiership Gameweek 19: 26 December, 27 December 2009 Birmingham City vs. Chelsea A lot of pundits reckon that Chelsea will have “just enough” to win this one. Birmingham at home are a tough proposition. They’re the form team of the Premier League at the moment. Indeed Chelsea have problems of their own. No Michael Essien, Nicolas [...]

English Premiership Gameweek 18: 19 December, 20 December, 21 December 2009 Portsmouth vs. Liverpool What a game to get the weekend underway… Portsmouth, who are looking better under Avram Grant, face the under fire Reds. Rafa Benitez will write off Pompey at his peril. He has no option but to play a near-full strength side. The irony [...]

English Premiership Gameweek 16: 12 December, 13 December 2009 Stoke City vs. Wigan Athletic A lot of fuss has been made over the locker room bust up between James Beattie and Stoke manager Tony Pulis last weekend.

Burnley have been blowing cold away from home, and you’ve got to believe they’re targeting this as a possible three points away from home - something that [...]

Arsenal vs. Tottenham Hotspur Tottenham are likely without Aaron Lennon and definitely missing Jermain Defoe, and their performance against Stoke last week didn’t really inspire confidence. Arsenal are in form at the moment and will be tough to challenge at home. Plus, their junior team disposed of a more experienced Liverpool team in midweek League Cup [...]

The game on everyone’s minds is the titanic clash between Liverpool and Manchester United on Sunday. We preview that game and all the other weekend action. Wolverhampton Wanderers vs. Aston Villa You’d think that Aston Villa will stroll to victory here. But Villa seem to have this annoying habit of stealing points from games no one expects [...]

The League gets underway after a two-week international World Cup qualifier break. No major matches this weekend, but plenty of unpredictable encounters. Aston Villa vs. Chelsea Villa at home are always tough, but after Chelsea’s triumph over Liverpool (which feels like ages ago), you have to believe that the Blues are motivated and hungry to keep winning. [...]

Some tricky games in the English Premiership this weekend, with all eyes fixed on the Chelsea vs. Liverpool clash. We preview all the games. Wolverhampton Wanderers vs. Portsmouth Wolves have been unlucky. They’re a good team. On paper, they’re better than Portsmouth. Portsmouth and Paul Hart have their own problems. There’s “no more money”, we’re told. Players [...]
